MacsBug
(6.5.4)

NOTE: MacsBug stands for
Motorola
Advanced
Computer
Systems
DeBUGger. The "Macs" part
has nothing to do with the Macintosh computer.

Balloon Help

move over the program's icon

You will see

"This file provides programmers with information
proving that it really was a hardware problem...".

6.5.4a1 has the altered message:

"MacsBug is a low-level debugger. It it best
served chilled with fish, hearty meats, and cheeses. Do
not use while operating heavy machinery or driving a
motor vehicle. Do not combine with medication."

Control on reboot

Hold down Control when you start-up your
computer.

If you have MacsBug installed it will immediately go to
the program. Then it will say "Welcome to MacsBug (thanks
for holding down Control)".

Type G and push Return to continue your
start-up.

Resedit

In the MacsBug 6.5.2 file, use ResEdit to open the
only "mxnx" resource.

Then use ACSII find and look for "Ol'" (Oh Ell
apostrophe)

You will find the text "Ol' McDonald had a farm..."

Help Leaks

In version 6.5.4, and maybe earlier versions, trigger
MacsBug and type "help leaks".
